Default ABS

Does anyone have any idea as to why HD does not offer ABS on Softail Models? I really want an 09 Heritage, but am considering and SD or RK because of the lack of ABS option. It seems that everyone that has ABS swears by it, so why not on Softails?

Default RE: ABS - Softail Models

Sorry about misdirected post in sportsters - thought I was in Softail Category and cannot see an option for deleting the&nbsp\\;thread. But I guess the same could be asked about the lack of availability of ABS on Sportsters. Is there no need?
